Definitions

  • the field of the invention is that of the flow of aircraft traffic over the airport areas before they takeoff or after they have landed and of the electronic and data processing means allowing the route to be followed over these areas to be indicated to the crews.
  • FIG. 1 shows a partial plan view of an airport area Z.
  • the aircraft A situated on the taxiway B must get to the takeoff runway “27L” appearing in black in FIG. 1 .
  • the pilot will receive a taxiing instruction indicating to him for example to go via the taxiways “BD20” and “Y11”.
  • An ATC instruction authorizing the taxiing is also called taxiing clearance.
  • the ATC communicates this information by voice and the pilots remember it and may write it down on paper or in a text input area, such as a “scratchpad”, of an electronic control unit.
  • This unit can be an MCDU, acronym for “Multi Control Display Unit”.
  • the pilots then use paper maps to locate themselves within the airport area and follow the route indicated.
  • the clearance can be entered into the system:
  • the taxiing instructions indicate the destination which, by way of example, might be “holding position”, “stand”, “runway” then the route to be followed composed of names of taxiways.
  • an instruction generally takes the following form:
  • this instruction In order to input an instruction without ambiguities, this instruction must be input by introducing a separator between each airport element so as to allow the system to easily find it and without errors in a database.
  • the instruction ATC: “TAXI TO stand E10 VIA taxiways T40, T41 and M2” corresponds to the pilot inputting the following: “E10-T40-T41-M2”.
  • the addition of a separator between each element adds a workload for the pilot who runs the risk of not having the time to input the complete instruction dictated to him by the ATC.
  • the object of the invention is to provide means and a method allowing the separators in the input carried out by the pilot to be partially or totally eliminated from the ATC instructions.
  • the system must demonstrate a certain intelligence in order to reconstruct the route starting from indistinctive elements input by the pilot.
  • the first subject of the invention is a method for creation of a taxiing route over an airport area comprising at least the following steps:
  • the routes established in step 3 of the method are generated by means of a connection graph for the elements of the airport area, each corresponding airport element being described by a polygon, each polygon being defined in an airport database by a name, a type, a set of segments and a set of connection points, each connection point corresponding to a common border with another polygon, all of the segments connecting the connection points of each polygon forming the connection graph.
  • the invention also relates to a system for creation of a taxiing route over an airport area allowing the preceding method to be implemented, characterized in that the said system comprises:
  • the alphanumeric input device is an electronic unit “MCDU” or an alphanumeric input device using writing recognition or an alphanumeric input device using voice recognition.
  • FIG. 1 already described, shows a plan view of an airport area with its various clearances
  • FIG. 2 shows a schematic diagram of a system for creation of a taxiing route over an airport area according to the invention
  • FIG. 3 shows a connection graph representative of the possible routes inside of the airport area.
  • FIG. 2 The system for creation of a taxiing route over an airport area according to the invention is shown in FIG. 2 . It comprises the following elements:
  • FIG. 3 shows a simplified airport area Z in which an aircraft AIRCRAFT is located at a point P of the area and must get to the runway E.
  • the area comprises the taxiway elements A, AB, CD, C, BC, D, B and E.
  • the ATC gives the following instruction to the pilot: Go to E passing successively via A, BC, D and E.
  • the method for creation of a taxiing route according to the invention comprises four main steps.
  • the first step consists, for the user, in inputting by means of the alphanumeric input device 1 an instruction representative of the succession of passing points representing the taxiing route to be created.
  • this instruction begins with the goal to be reached, in this case E, then the pilot successively inputs the intermediate clearances which are in the present case A, BC and D.
  • the instruction is interpretable without ambiguities. If the pilot does not input any separators—for example, if the instruction input is EABCD—there exist various possible routes corresponding to this instruction. In this case, the method goes to the second step.
  • the lexical analysis device 3 decomposes the instruction input into several successions of credible names of passing points, a credible name effectively corresponding to a name of an element of the airport area in the lexicon 2 .
  • the lexical analysis device 3 will find the five following credible successions: E-A-B-C-D; E-A-B-CD; E-A-BC-D; E-AB-C-D and lastly E-AB-CD.
  • the method goes to the third step.
  • the route calculation device 5 checks, for each possible succession, that the corresponding route is compatible with the connectivities existing between the various clearances of the succession.
  • the second succession E-A-BC-D is possible. It is the only succession in which the passing points follow each other in a continuous fashion, and it really does correspond to the initial instruction from the ATC.
  • the fourth step is then carried out.
  • the system displays the single route found on the display device 6 .
  • the pilot is warned that there is a problem. He must then verify the instruction input and, where necessary, modify it.
